+.SH DESCRIPTION
+These functions extract the exponent from the
+internal floating-point representation of
+.I x
+and return it as a floating-point value.
+The integer constant
+.BR FLT_RADIX ,
+defined in
+.IR <float.h> ,
+indicates the radix used for the system's floating-point representation.
+If
+.B FLT_RADIX
+is 2,
+.BI logb( x )
+is similar to
+.BI floor(log2(fabs( x )))\f[R],\f[]
+except that the latter may give an incorrect integer
+due to intermediate rounding.
+.P
+If
+.I x
+is subnormal,
+.BR logb ()
+returns the exponent
+.I x
+would have if it were normalized.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+On success, these functions return the exponent of
+.IR x .
+.P
+If
+.I x
+is a NaN,
+a NaN is returned.
+.P
+If
+.I x
+is zero, then a pole error occurs, and the functions return
+.RB \- HUGE_VAL ,
+.RB \- HUGE_VALF ,
+or
+.RB \- HUGE_VALL ,
+respectively.
+.P
+If
+.I x
+is negative infinity or positive infinity, then
+positive infinity is returned.
+.SH ERRORS
+See
+.BR math_error (7)
+for information on how to determine whether an error has occurred
+when calling these functions.
+.P
+The following errors can occur:
+.TP
+Pole error: \fIx\fP is 0
+.\" .I errno
+.\" is set to
+.\" .BR ERANGE .
+A divide-by-zero floating-point exception
+.RB ( FE_DIVBYZERO )
+is raised.
+.P
+These functions do not set
+.IR errno .
+.\" FIXME . Is it intentional that these functions do not set errno?
+.\" log(), log2(), log10() do set errno
+.\" Bug raised: https://www.sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6793
